The campaign in German East Africa was one of the most disastrous in British history. Whereas the Crimean War was totally unforeseen, a plan to conquer the German protectorate in the event of war had been made as early as 1897, when German naval construction and support for the Transvaal were arousing concern. The Indian government was responsible for supplying troops to the British protectorates in eastern Africa, should any serious emergency arise. Indian and Sudanese troops were, therefore, to be supported by carriers from the coast and Nyasaland. But the transport requirements for an invasion were never really faced realistically; it was, however, established that the main British advance would be from Voi, on the Uganda Railway, towards Moshi.1KeywordsBacillary DysenteryGeneral StaffSettler PressureDistrict CommissionerGerman DistrictThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
